  • 2tablespoonshoney, or more to taste
  • 1tablespoonDijon mustard, or more to taste
  • ½teaspoonground black pepper, or to taste
  • ½(3 pound)pork loin
  • ½(8 ounce) canpineapple chunks, drained
  • ¼teaspoonsalt, or to taste

  • Directions

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

    Mix honey, Dijon mustard, and black pepper together in a bowl until texture of a paste.

    Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork loin in the hot skillet until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer pork loin to a baking dish. Spread honey paste over entire pork loin. Spread pineapple chunks around pork loin and sprinkle salt over pork loin.

    Place a cooking thermometer into the pork loin and cover dish with aluminum foil.

    Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Decrease oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Continue cooking until pork is cooked through, 30 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

    Transfer pork loin to a work surface and let rest, 3 to 5 minutes. Blend pineapple chunks and drippings in a blender until sauce is smooth; serve alongside pork loin.
